Just read this

"Argonaut apply their creative touch to the water-racer genre; leaving us asking do we actualyl need anymore..."

It gets better.

 

[Matlock]

Could it be that water based games are not the perfect setting for an enthralling video game? Could it be that the design layout in Carve is just too cumbersome? It’s highly probable that is a combination of the two

:lol

 

[D2M15]

That’s not to say the designs were in any way boring – although to be honest they were!

Surely a new plateau for backhanded compliments.

 

[MC Safety]

I would say the allure of ice maiden cum water babe Amiko is more to my liking!

Look up Derek de la Fuente or whatever the fuck he's called online. I dare you!

TVG = genius!

The big question is - does Carve's soundtrack set a new standard?

That said it's a horribly under-rated Xbox Live game, considering it's budget price.

 

[epmode]

wow. just wow.

Argonaut - STAR GLIDER 3 STAT YOU BITCHES!

 

[boutrosinit]

That has got to be the worst use of English I have ever read. Is he Foreign?

THAT is the funniest review ever

"Some games you want to turn off after the shortest possible time and Carve is one of them!"
OVERALL: 5/10

Actually, RPGamer's Thousand Arms review is the funniest review ever. It's even more impressive if you know that English, technically speaking, is Mike Tidwell's first language. Some choice quotes:

"Being skeptical that the first dating RPG, I made the assumption the female characters would be extra cautious, making sure not to be too daring, or possibly even the complete lack of innuendo."

"The battles are very unique, as they are a one on one, with support from the other characters and monsters on each side. The only problems are that it's not completely believable, since monsters wouldn't normally follow such a structure, but they do."

"As we mention the music CD as one of Thousand Arms' extra goodies, one must mention that Atlus has gone all out with the goods. Atlus also decided to make their SoundTrack and MultiMedia CD availible for free, and a modest $2 shipping."

"I invite everyone to join Meis in trying to win the hearts all of girls he can find, which is no easy task. When there is more than one on the screen at once can be a real handful."

I'm so glad I could contribute to the GA pantheon of useless phrases.

That sounds like he ran some Japanese review through Babelfish. :lol

 

[epmode]

edit: whoops.

 

[Mecha Gandhi]

I think the word he was looking for was 'jet-ski'

How on earth is it possible to write a several page review of a jetski game without using the word jetski (or Ski-doo). I'm almost rather impressed.

 

[snaildog]

I'll just chime in that I'm fucking SICK of the exponential scale that virtually everyone uses for game reviews.
